It's hardware-based emulation via FPGA(s), which as I understand it is different from (and has the potential to be more accurate than) software-based emulation and is one of the reasons why it's more expensive. Not sure how record or live worthy it will ultimately be though.

I've always thought that if people can't get near-indistinguishable output from emulation (software or hardware), they aren't trying hard enough. Modern DACs are transparent and we can emulate any analog quirks in the digital domain.
(I'm actually interested in this and some kind of collab with a chiptuner to try to get extremely accurate characterization of some platform's audio is the kind of project that'd be right up my alley)

Didn't they fix a lot of the C=64 SID accuracy problems of the past in the current versions of, I think, VICE thanks to reSID and its SID emulation? So it seems it can definitely be done.
